Canadian Forces are grappling with increasingly unpredictable weather conditions during Arctic training exercises, a direct consequence of climate change. Recent observations from Lt Col Travis Hanes highlight the instability of ice sheets and the emergence of unusual freezing patterns in rivers, posing significant risks to navigation and logistical operations. A large-scale operation involving 1,300 personnel is underway, aimed at surveying the land, understanding the impacts of climate change, and testing survival and warfare capabilities in the Arctic, which constitutes a substantial portion of Canada's territory.
